Jackie Hill Perry
“I used to be a lesbian.” In Gay Girl, Good God, author Jackie Hill Perry shares her own story, offering practical tools that helped her in the process of finding wholeness. Jackie grew up fatherless and experienced gender confusion. She embraced masculinity and homosexuality with every fiber of her being. She knew that Christians had a lot to say about all of the above. But was she supposed to change herself? How was she supposed to stop loving women, when homosexuality felt more natural to her than heterosexuality ever could? At age nineteen, Jackie came face-to-face with what it meant to be made new. And not in a church, or through contact with Christians. God broke in and turned her heart toward Him right in her own bedroom in light of His gospel. Read in order to understand. Read in order to hope. Or read in order, like Jackie, to be made new.

"10/10. Beautiful. "
Halle Tash
"The message of this book transcends "gay" lifestyle. It's a good book with good information and a personal perspective that allows you to understand better."
Natalie
"Not for me. DNF. "
Deanna Jackson
"As a Christian these are difficult conversations to have with others. Usually, because most of us haven’t been there and can’t speak from personal experience. But Jackie Hill Perry can. Jackie used to be identified by her sin, but she is no longer. The Lord had grabbed a hold of her life & even the life of her husband & is using their past sin, their past choices, their past identities to not only help those who have been there, but to help those of us who have not. I would strongly recommend this book to anyone who questions how sexual sin or past sexual changes our daily walk with God."

"Jackie's poetic skill shines through. Her words paint a picture in your mind that makes you feel as if you were holding her hand on this journey, and now you are remembering it with her. This book has a beautiful soul and voice!"
